Welcome

> "THE MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING and I must GO"

– John Muir

Arnold Haven's cabins are the perfect place to relax and enjoy the company of friends and family - groups big or small.

Arnold, California sits right at the snow line in the Sierra Nevada — plenty of white stuff in winter, but not so much that it's hard to get around. Big Trees State Park is five minutes away, White Pines Lake is down the road, and Bear Valley Resort is a short drive up Highway 4.
